we've ALL known about this since 2004, when ford said it was discontinuing the ranger in 2006. then it got pushed to 2009, then 2011.
there are LOTS of threads already on this topic
and tell your dealer that ford is not replacing the ranger with anything.

I apologize, I'm a new member, that was my first post! I sir have Not known about it, sorry to of upset you.

I have an 04 Reg cab, 2 wheel drive with a Termite tank in back. It's ok, but in my opinion too small anyhow. I do not consider the gas mileage all that great for as small as it is, no bud but not great. 15-16 at bet around town, maybe 18-19 around town. Tank is never full, usually maybe 30 - 40 gals with pump maybe 500 lbs, probably less. What's that, 2adults and a child? V6 f150 is as good or better. New echo boost with twice up gets 21-23 highway. It's just the ranger is cheaper to buy although nat a lot cheap than the base model f150. No big loss I guess.
